Choosing a payment processor is one of the most critical decisions a business can make. You need quick, reliable, and safe transactions. You also want a provider that is clear, fair, and dedicated to your success. You don’t want one that makes money from hidden fees and strict contracts.
That’s why businesses are making the switch to Fare.
While Square and other processors are well-known, they have complicated fees, impersonal customer support, and unnecessary restrictions.
Fare is different.
We have created an honest payment solution. It has no extra processing fees, real human support, and smart technology. This solution helps businesses, not exploits them.
Let’s take a closer look at how Fare stacks up against Square and other competitors.
| Feature | Fare | Square |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing Transparency | No hidden fees, clear pricing | Complicated processing fees |
| Processing Fees | Lower, straightforward rates | High fees, extra charges |
| Customer Support | Real human support, no chatbots | Mostly automated, hard to reach real people |
| Hardware Costs | Affordable, no overpriced add-ons | Costly hardware upgrades |
| Connectivity Options | Wi-Fi, 4G LTE, Bluetooth | Wi-Fi only (some devices) |
| Security Features | Advanced encryption, fraud protection | Secure but not customizable |
| Payout Speed | Next-day funding | Slower for some users |
| Flexibility | Works for any business model | Geared only toward retail & small businesses |
| Built-in Features | Dual screens, built-in printer, cloud-based reporting | Limited features on standard devices |

As you can see, Fare wins in every key category—especially in pricing, customer service, and ease of use.
Many businesses do not know how much they pay in processing fees. This often happens when they get their first confusing statement.
Square’s pricing might seem simple at first, but there are hidden costs.
With Fare, you get a straightforward, honest pricing structure.
If you have an urgent issue, like a frozen account or a delayed payout, you might have to deal with automated systems. This means you may not be able to talk to a real person.
Your business deserves real support. That’s why Fare gives you a dedicated team—so you can get the help you need, when you need it.
Other payment processors may not have hardware, charge higher fees, or limit your options. Fare offers a complete, clear, and flexible solution.
